I hope the change to polymorph is real and not a bug. As nice as it is to get a free heal in PvP, it's a PITA to pull a mob with less than 50% health in Shattered Halls and have it be at 100% health when we pop sheep.

A change I saw was the animate for the Imp to gain Phase Shift is different.

"'- Serpent Flesh has a new icon, it no longer looks like a trouser serpent"

...lol

Is it just me or does that sentence make zero sense?

This HAS to be a bug, but holy damn... if it isn't...

holy damn.

"Mages can now polymorph multiple targets by using the different polymorph spells (Pig, Turtle, and Sheep).

(Previously, casting polymorph: pig on another target while having a sheep active would break the sheep. Note that the animal actually must be different -- Simply using a different rank of Polymorph (sheep) will break the other active sheep.)"

Can anyone confirm this?

I can. I have tried polymorphing multiple targets using different polymorphs and they both remain polymorphed. This can also be used with the no healing bug, which makes mages cc so much better. I haven't checked yet, but I also believe that if you polymorph a mob or player, each different polymorph has a different DR, so you can keep 1 mob polyed for twice as long, or 2 mobs polyed for the normal amount. If this is kept in live, this would be a whole new era of Mage CC, making us one of the most wanted CCers in the game.

"Making us (being mages) one of the most wanted CCers in the game."


Uh hello, what the heck other class has better cc than a mage?! Good grief, talk about inferiority complex...

Good god. This seems a bit much. Not that I'm complaining, especially after they seem to have nerfed my boots this patch (those bastards!), nerfed iceblock and coldsnap (this patch), nerfed my dps coefficient by 10% (last patch), nerfed ignite (patch before), and gave fire tailoring patterns with zero stamina (grrr).

But yes Ruz, Mage CC is quite lacking if you don't want your target healed to full... which is more often than you would think. Chain frost trap is much more powerful, as is seduce.

Down with Sevbit.

Long live Ruzbit!


VIVA RUZBIT!!!
